Experienced Defoliation User Question

JiminyCricketstarted grow question 6y ago

Wondering if I should continue to remove new growths, especially at the bottom after the heavy Defoliation I did a few days ago on my flowering set? Looking for people who regularly use Defoliation on their autos. Do you see better results pulling new growth on bud development?

I am having a hard time getting a sense of the autoflower "timeline". Many breeders have these "seed to harvest" claims, such as 55 - 85 days seed to harvest etc. My grow is entering week 9, and the flowering stage is just getting started. Are these claims even worth noting?

Defoliation Hello growers. Is there a max limit on how much I should defoliate? I feel like I could improve the light to the lower levels more but I’m worried it could harm the plants and affect the growth?

Should I do a pre harvest defoliation a week before harvest?What are the benefits and consequences of defoliating a week before harvest? Is it good or bad? I have tons of foliage up top and need it to go away. It's too late in flower, but a week before will open up the canopy to the lower bud sites. Any and all help is welcome. Thanks!

In the last 2 pics from this week you can see #1 leaves "tacoing" I've read this indicates heat stress, but the lights are over a foot above, great airflow and surface temp is only 78°. What's the deal? @hso do these girls like cool climates??
